The BOLD and the BRILLIANT

LONDON

THE TREASURES HE HAS INHERITED, says Krishna Choudhary, are both tangible and intangible. First, the intangible: his family's jewelry legacy, which stretches from the 18th-century Mughal founding of Jaipur to his father, Santi, the founder of Royal Gems and Arts and the namesake of Choudhary's Mayfair atelier.

imageThe tangible? A museum-quality vault of rare gems that Choudhary sets in contemporary ways that honor the jewel, echo India's virtuoso decorative arts, and delight the collector with fresh geometries. That breathtaking 20-carat Golconda diamond traced to India's royal families? "I had it set in a pendant with silk," he says, disarmingly. As he readies Santi Jewels for his first outing at TEFAF Maastricht this spring, this worthy inheritor says he can't wait to interact with collectors to walk "through my journey of pastand future."
